Frontiers, states and identity in early modern Ireland and beyond

Essays in honour of Steven G. Ellis

Christopher Maginn & Gerald Power, editors

The scholarship of the influential historian Steven G. Ellis provides inspiration and coherence to this collection of original essays assembled in his honour. Explorations of the history of Tudor Ireland form the core of the volume, but essays on late-medieval Ireland, the Tudor far north and on the Netherlands and Iceland in later times broaden the chronological and geographic scope.
